"I can't forgive your sins, William. But, as your friend, I can try to understand what you're doing. The premise is that you have to confess to us. ”

Father Ann looked at William with a sincere expression, and the latter looked at him as well.

The two looked at each other for a long time before William spoke slowly, "Before I confide the truth to you, I hope you can understand my suffering.

The reason why those unwanted lies exist is because I don't want you to treat me like a bad person. ”

"Are you implying that what you said before was a lie?"

Yu Siqi asked eagerly.

"It's not a ministry, but it's not much different."

William bowed his head in shame.

"I guess it's almost a lie other than the name, right?"

Father Ann smiled indifferently, looked at William, and said.

"Pretty much." William floated in the air for a while, then landed in the middle of them, saying, "I am indeed a professor, but not a psychologist. I really teach cell biology and genetics, and if you've read my papers in the life sciences column, it's easy to guess who I am.

But as we all know, not many people read articles that are too academic. ”

"Someone fell in love with you in those articles, right?"

As soon as Father Ann said this, William was so frightened that he ascended to the sky and floated in the air for a long time.

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from the priest." William said with some sadness: "It's true that my very good articles have attracted a lot of attention for me." Among them, there is the infamous Twilight Cult. ”

"You know the Twilight Cult?"

Yu Siqi asked subconsciously.

"I've been forced to join it before, of course I know. I also know that many of the horrific things that happened in Tangjiawan were caused by me.

It can be said that if I had been stronger, if I had gritted my teeth and survived. Perhaps, the tens of thousands of townspeople in Mendu Town should not suffer from this ordeal. ”

William wept bitterly, invisible tears dripping down his pale face, and finally disappeared silently to the ground.

"Do you want to say that the blue elixir and those 'living dead' are your masterpieces?"

Yu Siqi suddenly realized something and hurriedly asked.

"No, they are all the masterpieces of my brother-in-law Ningda, and I just assisted him in developing them."

William's expression began to grow painful, he fell to his knees, held his head, and said, "I swear, I definitely didn't mean to do that." But if I don't do it, they'll force me to do it in other ways. ”

"What's going on with the people who are missing? How did you get involved with the Priestly Society? ”

Father Ann raised his voice as William cried, which made his tone slightly sharper.

"Those people are new members who want to leave the Cult, and they have all become poor test subjects for a certain period of time. I think you've seen them already, in the basement of a former paper mill. ”

William wiped his snot and said with a crying voice.

"Does that mean that the basement of the paper mill is actually your base?"

Yu Siqi's memory was momentary, recalling fragments of the past, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

"The whole paper mill is a front, and they used to conduct experiments at the source of Qiao Creek. Later, because of the big commotion, he was forced to move the location.

I also joined in the middle of the transfer of the paper mill to Tangjiawan. ”

William perfected Yu Siqi's views and statements, which allowed others to learn more about him.

"Wait, Qiao Xi? How do I feel this place so familiar? ”

Yu Siqi tried to recall something, but it was not particularly successful.

"It was a beautiful place, before we got our hands on it."

William said, grimacingly, "It's a very long story about how I got involved with the Priestly Society.

Are you sure you want to keep listening? ”

"Of course."

Fr. Ann nodded and made a 'please' gesture.

"My first contact with the Shrine was at a sorority. Although I was no longer a faculty member at the university at that time, they graciously invited me.

Out of politeness, but also out of curiosity, I went to this sorority party at the Conant Hotel.

At the sorority, I was approached by a young man who claimed to be a fellow countryman, and he said that his name was An Xiaobei, and he was the president of the Soul Sacrifice Society.

I asked him, what kind of organization would the spirits be?

He told me that it was an organization focused on the study of the occult.

To be honest, I was a little surprised when I heard this answer.

Because not many people are going to study the 'occult' anymore.

Maybe some naughty students in the university will secretly try their courage in the mountains behind the school known as the haunted house on unknown nights.

But as far as I know, that's probably the only way to go.

Who would have thought that not long after that sorority. An Xiaobei found me and strongly introduced me to another force that I didn't want to contact at all-the Twilight Sect.

This was the time when my life changed dramatically. ”

William's expression looked a little solemn as he recounted his past.

"I've heard of An Xiaobei, and several of his brothers and sisters are old acquaintances with us." Father An smiled indifferently and said, "Of course, I heard it from Agui. ”

"He's a brainless kid, and it's in his nature to be playful. He didn't know what kind of school he was exposed to, and he didn't know what kind of trouble he would cause if he introduced it to me. William's expression was a little complicated and said, "But none of this matters, after all, he is dead, and he was killed by my own hands." ”

"You killed An Xiaobei?"

Yu Siqi was shocked.

Although William had already told him so many 'shocking secrets', this news alone made him a little difficult to accept.

'Who would have thought that William, who was so talkative, would actually kill a person and be the president of the Soul Society. ’

"You've done all the bad things, William."

Father Ann looked at him coldly and said.

"Have you finally come to your senses, Father? Truth be told, they're just a small part of my heinous past. There are still many unspeakable links that I have automatically omitted for you. William stood up, looked at Father Ann and said, "Come, I know that I have sinned, and now I am willing to accept any punishment." Even if the priest crushed my soul to slag, I didn't complain. ”

"You have been punished as you deserve, and I don't want to continue to do any 'immoral corporal punishment' on an Spirit." Fr. Ann held up the poster to William's and asked, "One last question, can you tell me, whose handwriting is this?" It would be nice to have a home address. ”

"Isn't that Liu Laogou's words? I know, it turns out that he exposed my identity! This dead ghost who has been stabbed a thousand times, can't he do some bad things like 'scribbling' everywhere? ”

William just glanced at the poster, and immediately became familiar to Yu Siqi. I don't know if it's because he finally thinks Father Ann won't trouble him, or if it's something else.

"Listen to your tone? You seem to know him? ”

Yu Siqi asked with a suspicious expression.

In fact, it is normal for him to be suspicious at this time, whether it is according to William's historical performance or the content on the poster, it shows that the guy should not know William.

"Of course I know Liu Laogou. The town's famous dog meat dealer, who doesn't know him. I've eaten Hanainu Yaki at his before. ”

William said nonchalantly.

"But the above words seem to be describing in a tone that he is not familiar with you!"

Yu Siqi strongly pointed out what he thought was strange, which caused William to laugh.

"What are you laughing at?"

Father Ann asked, with a piercing gaze.

"I laugh at you for being so smart, but I don't see a situation where it's called, 'I know him, but he doesn't know me.'" Besides, I remember when I came here, I was all masked.

This is Xiaobei's arrangement, and he thinks that it is not appropriate for me to expose my identity too much in front of my neighbors. ”

William's explanation is so plausible that it is almost impossible to find any flaws.

"Since you know this old dog Liu, then you must know where he lives, right?"

Yu Siqi decided to take advantage of the victory to pursue the key question.

"It's in an alley not far from here, do you need me to lead the way?"

William waved his hand to disperse the growing spirits that had gathered here, and asked enthusiastically.

"Then I'm bothering you."

Father Ann stepped on the circle drawn on the ground with his foot, and reached out to William to grasp it, holding it in his hand.

At this moment, the other spirits that approached, as if they had been absorbed by an invisible force, quickly disappeared.

In the whole room, William was left alone, still in the hands of Father An.

"Fortunately, I knew that I couldn't escape the palm of the priest's hand, so I didn't resist much at all."

William said comfortingly.

"Is your resistance useful?"

Yu Siqi's attitude towards William, although there have been some changes. But in general, it still maintains a close posture. I'm afraid this is because William is not so hateful in his eyes.

Of course, it is not excluded that it is because of those tragic things that did not happen to him.
